I've found not all clients are resisting, there are some who are ready to embrace it. But the ones who are resisting may be somewhat responsible for firms not engaging, but not entirely. I have a few acquiantances at various firms whose clients are uninterested and sometimes it seems so are they. The tides of change may be coming in waves, but I think we still need to be ready for it. Thanks for your comment.

I disagree. From what I see is that most clients don't understand social media. Less so than PR firms. This means the resistance isn't knee deep, say, in beach sand. It's up to the waste. The tide of change is coming in. In waves. Not a tsunami. But all to often it's the client that is reisting. Michele

We have been implementing blog strategies for our clients for several years. I'm not missing that social media is PR, but our profession is about more than that. For example, media relations is only a part of PR. My point was, there's a lot we can talk about, let's not ignore the other important stuff! Hi Michele,
